Welcome to Calm Colors - Sort & Relax ("we," "our," or "the app"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

This Privacy Policy explains how Calm Colors handles (or more accurately, doesn't handle) your information. By using our app, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

2. Information We DO NOT Collect

Calm Colors is designed with privacy at its core. We do NOT collect, transmit, or store:

• Personal Information: No names, email addresses, phone numbers, or contact details
• Location Data: We don't track where you are or where you've been
• Usage Analytics: We don't monitor how you use the app, which palettes you prefer, or how long you play

• Crash Reports: We don't automatically collect crash logs (though Google Play may collect anonymized crash data)
• Behavioral Data: No tracking of taps, swipes, or interaction patterns
• Biometric Data: No fingerprints, face scans, or health information

3. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

The app stores minimal data locally on your device using Android SharedPreferences. This data never leaves your device and includes:

Data Type	Purpose	Shared with Us?
Completed palette IDs	Track which palettes you've finished	❌ No
Games played count	Display milestone achievements	❌ No
PRO unlock status	Remember if you've purchased PRO	❌ No
App preferences	Remember settings like sound/vibration	❌ No

Important: If you uninstall the app, all locally stored data is automatically deleted by Android. We cannot recover it because we never had access to it.

4. In-App Purchases

4.1 How Purchases Work

Calm Colors offers a PRO unlock as a one-time in-app purchase. All purchase transactions are processed entirely by Google Play, not by us.

4.2 What Google Play Collects

When you make a purchase, Google Play may collect:

• Your Google account information
• Payment method details (credit card, PayPal, etc.)
• Purchase history and receipts
• Transaction metadata (date, amount, product ID)

We do NOT have access to your payment information. Google's privacy policy governs purchase data: https://policies.google.com/privacy

4.3 What We Receive

We only receive a purchase receipt token from Google Play to verify that you own the PRO unlock. This token:

• Cannot identify you personally
• Is stored only on your device
• Is used solely to unlock PRO features

5. Third-Party Services

Calm Colors does NOT integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. No third parties receive data from this app.

• Optional anonymized crash reporting (controlled by Google Play, not us)
